Death of an Estimable Lady.

On Monday morning last at five minutes
before 10 o'clock Mrs. Ellen F. Shelley,
relict of Hon. james w. Sheffey, died at
her home in Marion. The deceased, whose
maiden name was Preston, was born in
Washington county, Va, on the 7th day of
November, 1872 On the 10Th day of Sep
TENDER, 1885, she was married to James
W. Shelley, and, with her husband, took
up her residence in this town soon after
her marriage, where she had resided con-
tinuously till her death Mrs. Shelley
united herself with the Presbyterian church
in 1889, and her life since that time has
been that of a consistent and useful chris
tian worker. Of a naturally modest and
retiring disposition she was always extend
ing the hand of charity and doing works of
beneVolence. May households have been
the recipients of her tender care in times
of t.ial and need. She did her kind acts
without ostentation, and sought not the
praise of the world. She died as she had
lived, beloved by all who knew her and at
perfect peace with her God. The funeral
exercises took place yesterday in the Pres
byterian church, and the sermon by Rev.
McPheeters was exceptionally good. The
church was filled with friends, a number of
colored ones present, who were anxious to
show their respect for the deceased. After
these exercises were over the remains were
inferred in the private cemetery of the
family, situated in the eastern part of the
town. All of Mrs. Sheffey's children and
all the grandchildren, excepting four, we're
present. -Marion Herald.

WILL IT PAY?-When the taxpayer is de-
batting how he shall pay his taxes, let him
leDk beyond the present and see if he can
afford to use coupons. We can give some
reasons why he cannot. First-the general
use of coupons will lead to an increase in
the rate OF taxation.
Secondly, if he offers coupons his property
may be returned delinquent, and the taxes
will then be standing lien on his property,
thus interfering with its sale. He thinks
to have the cost of his lawsuit paid by the
bondholders cut of the money recovered
from the State Treasurer by suit for trespass
if the Treasurer levies On and sells prop
erty. But suppose the State takes these
tax claims in which coupons have been ten
dered, out of the hands of the Treasurers
and places them in the hands Of some col
lector aoithout security, and who is not him
self responsible and directs him to levy and
sell property, where will be the remedy of
the coupon taxpayer? He can now only
recover damages of the officer, but if the Of
fieer is inselvent, who then will pay his
costs CIR damages. He cannot sue the State
without its consent, because the constitu-
zion If the United States forbids it.
Thirdly. After lime the differences be-
tween the State and coupon bondholders
will be settled and their offer Of free law
suit will be with lrawn- Then, if not be-
fore, the Stale can enfercs it's lien and COL
leet all back taxes " It'll interest. All things
considered, the use of coupons only promises
trouble TO those who use them.-BedforG

The Farmers National Congress.

The Farmers National Congress as
sembled in Washington city on the 18th
instant by appointment, Colonel Robert
Beverley, of Virginia, President. In open
irg its deliberations, the President de-
ivered an address of characteristic force,
and well considered views, for the main
teuance of which ne has labored long and
faithfully, This legislation now occurring
is on the line which the Congress has since
its organization demanded. A full depart
ment of agriculture represented in the ad-
ministration of the government and Inter
State Commerce bill are some of the
measures which received the sanction and
the influence Of this representative body of
farners.
Captain Charles Grattan was in atten-
dance at the recent session in Washington
and addressed the body on the 18th in
slant, directing his attention particularly
to the consideration of the Inter State Com
merce bill, and the question therein con-
corning the long and short haul. His
speech was pronounced one of the clearest
and most forcible which the subject has
called out, and gave great satisfaction ro
the Congress and his colleagues from Vir.
ginia. Next weeks SPECTATOR will con.
tain Colonel Beverley's address.
